measure of position.
1. 1st quartile = ____________ percentile

2. 80th percentile = ____________ decile

3. 2nd quartile = ____________ decile

4. 3rd quartile = ____________ percentile

Analysis of Data
Takes place after a statistical treatment was
done to a collected, organized and presented set
of data. A researcher may draw conclusions
from results of the statistical treatment.
Example1: Two contestants in a beauty contest
garnered the following scores from 7 judges.
Weighted Average
Weighted mean or scaled average is used
when we consider some data values to be more
important than other values and so we want
them to contribute more to the final "average".
Example 2: In Rex's school, Math grade for the
year are calculated from assignments, tests and a
final exam. Assignments count 30%, tests 20%, and
the final exam 50%. If Rex has an assignment grade
of 85, a test grade of 72, and an exam of 61, what is
Rex's overall grade?
Example 3: A group of people were surveyed for
how many movies they had seen in a week. The
table below shows the results of the survey.
How many people took part in the survey?
What was the total number of movies seen
in a week by all the survey takers?
What was the average number of movies seen in
a week per person surveyed? Round your
answer to the nearest whole number.
Standard Deviation
Is the measure of the variation of a set of data in
terms of the amounts by which the individual values
differ from their mean. If two sets of data have the
same mean, it does not follow that the data are
identical. They usually differ in the way the data are
distributed.

Standard Deviation
in Ungrouped Data
Example 4:

2 , 3, 4, 6, 9 and 12

1. Find the mean


Example 4:

2 , 3, 4, 6, 9 and 12

2. Determine the deviations d from the mean.


Example 4:

2 , 3, 4, 6, 9 and 12

3. Square the deviations.


Example 4:

2 , 3, 4, 6, 9 and 12

4. Add all the squared deviations.


Example 4:

2 , 3, 4, 6, 9 and 12

5. Divide by n.
Example 4:

2 , 3, 4, 6, 9 and 12

6. Take the square root of the result obtained in step


5.
How far below average is 2 ?

Why has 6 a deviation of 0 ?


Which score is 3 units above the average?

What does deviation of the score tell you?
